Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said he is in touch with Luis Suarez on a daily basis and wants the Uruguayan international to stay at Anfield.
Suarez is widely expected to leave Liverpool this summer after the forward expressed his unhappiness at life in England, with the 26-year-old pining for a move to Real Madrid.
Arsenal reportedly had a bid turned down by Liverpool, with Suarez admitting to being flattered by interest from other clubs.
Rodgers has always maintained his desire to keep the prolific striker at Liverpool for as long as possible and the manager said nothing had changed on that front.
"We communicate in some way nearly every day either through text or conversations," Rodgers told talkSPORT. "Over the course of the last few months and towards the end of the season there has been a lot of speculation with Luis, but the fact is it remains the same.
"We value the player. He had a terrific season for us last year and showed his qualities. Since then I've been in communication with him through texts and conversations on the phone and it (the situation) is pretty much the same. He is a valued player. He is an absolute magician on the field.
"Luis is a real competitor, a real winner. He wants Liverpool to do so well but, like every player, every manager, and more importantly every football club, they want to be working at the very highest level.
"At the minute he is on a break, he is relaxing with his family. We are in constant communication. He has got three years left on his contract, we don't want to sell him, and we hope everything will be fine for the summer.
"We want to bring in few more players to reinforce the group and we think we can put up a real fight next season."
Apart from Arsenal and Real Madrid, Suarez has also been linked with a move to Chelsea, while the likes of Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco have been mooted as possible destinations.
